About
I am a senior lecturer in chemical engineering at the University of Edinburgh. I lead a research team of five PhD students and we work in the research field of methane greenhouse gas mitigation and remediation.
Trained as a chemical engineer and motivated by tackling global challenges such as climate change and air quality, I am interested and have extensive experience in advanced oxidation processes (AOP) – engineering of reaction systems and their applications in environmental remediations, utilising my experimental, engineering and modelling skills, which are evidenced by over 60 high impact publications and 2000 citations.
Since my first lectureship in 2015, I have secured £660K research funding as PI and £765K as Co-I, including a H2020-MSCA-RISE project where I led a 7-partner international consortium and worked in the early stage of research of solar updraft and photocatalysis for methane removal, which is the foundation for this proposed new idea. And very recently, a different proposal focusing on novel photocatalytic materials for methane removal was secured from the UK Greenhouse Gas Removal Hub (CO2RE).
